RTW Jackets from The Anthology
Here I am in The Anthology's 'Shaggy Dog' lambswool sport jacket. As I was preparing to come up with the title for this article, I couldn't help but ponder how to best describe the latest ready-to-wear sports coats collection offered by The Anthology. Surely, 'sustainable' would be a convenient choice. That being said, with the term being increasingly ill-defined and, perhaps, misused in this day and age by players in the fashion industry and beyond, it wouldn't have done jus

High waisted trousers are always something that gets me excited. Check out this review on a pair I got from Natalino.


Shibumi Bespoke Tie: Review
Florence and Kyoto. Two sister cities that host some of the finest craftsmen in the world. What would happen if you blend both of them together? The answer is Shibumi Firenze. Existing readers of mine may recall me featuring Shibumi for a couple of times. First with my actual discovery of the brand at Permanent Style's pop-up last year, then with my article on the relevance of pocket square soon after. Needless to say, as a big fan of Edo Japan aesthetic myself, you could ima

Overall speaking, I am quite satisfied with the result of this lovely pair of trousers. To begin with, it has very a clean front which


Book Review: Men and Manners
Last Thursday I visited Drake's again for the book signing event of David Coggins' latest publication -- 'Men and Manners'. It was a great event really; especially since I could meet the man himself at last and many other familiar faces of the industry, as well as catching up with some mates. Anyway, I have to emphasize it is equally exciting to finally pick up the book and have a read to see what insights would the knowledgable author has to offer concerning the talk of mann


Shoemaking Experience With Artisan.M.Workshop
As a menswear enthusiast, I think it is quite important to pay attention to the craftsmanship behind the garments we wear. Not only because it is sensible for us to be more aware of why our clothings are crafted in a certain manner; but more importantly there is no better ways to recognize and appreciate the effort put forth by the artisans than this. Thus, during my trip back to Hong Kong, I decided to learn more about shoemaking by attending a handmaking leather shoe course


George Cleverley 1786 Russian Hide
There are really two main things that I consider when I make a purchase on accessories these days. The first being its versatility, and the second being the meaning or the significance of the product. In today's article, I will be introducing you all to an accessory made out of a truly unique material that not only fits the first qualification, but even more so on the second qualification. I present you all -- the 1786 Russian Hide, being accessed exclusively by the one and o
